I think I'm in the minority that I prefer Post-Nothing (and even No Singles!) to the lauded Celebration Rock (a fantastic album!) which is to say I love Japandroids. On first 6 spins this is probably my least favorite album of theirs, but it's still deeply satisfying.
My fave of 2016. New vocalist Charlie Fell absolutely shreds and complements these great songs so well. Not much black metal here, but plenty of sludge, noise rock, heavy post-hardcore and overall \m/
This barnburner of an EP can play 3 or 4 times before I'll change the tune, catchy and vicious. The political hardcore punk rock 2016 needed. Looking forward to future projects from these punx.
I don't know why this feel like a guilty pleasure, their silly name, straightforward melodies? Soaring black metal with harsh and clean vox, pretty bits and satisfying riffs.
Reflective, personal lyrics with more straightforward exposition than some of his earlier stuff but just as satisfying wordplay and smooth flow as ever.
I struggle a bit with true kvlt black metal production, so these classic riffs, galloping drums, low growls and just enough atmosphere make this one of my favorite black metal records of all time.
